Today is the start of pre-orders for Sprint's hottest new LTE phone. Think of it as the venerable HTC One X for Sprint. The EVO 4G LTE has a 4.7" 720p Super LCD, 1.5GHz dual core Krait CPU, NFC with Google Wallet (take that ATT One X), 16 gigs of storage, a 2,000 mAh battery and more crammed into a super slim body.

The phone is supposed to ship around May 18. Wirefly has a deal for $149.99 with free shipping and free activation, which will save you some bucks from Sprint's $199 price.
